GE made-in-India jet engine likely in 3 years

India expects the first GE­F414 jet engine to be jointly produced with the US to roll out in three years to power the indigenous Tejas Mark­2 fighters, in the project that will involve 80% transfer of technology (ToT) and herald a new era in the bilateral defence ­industrial collaboration. The MoU inked between General Electric (GE) Aerospace and Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL) in Washington will translate into the actual contract “within a few months” after conclusion of some remaining commercial negotiations, a top government official said on Friday.
